The right banding
A shorter working week
Thatās what UNISON members want and itās what NHS staff deserve.

We've written to the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care calling for negotiations to improve NHS pay.
The top priorities:
A proper pay rise
The right banding for all staff
A shorter working week

Many #NHS healthcare support staff are doing important clinical duties above their pay grade.
But UNISONās re-banding and back pay campaigns are putting an end to years of bosses exploiting the goodwill of low paid NHS workers.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a Ā£37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how Britain is run these days.

All of this. Every single word.
Baby no. 2 in May 2020 luckily had me home within 12hrs. Had we needed to stay in days like baby no. 1 it would have been utterly horrendous.
Sadly for many it was.
